18 Days for Background Check... not bad

Post by TexasAggies »

Hey guys, I'm new to the board. My status switched to manufacturing pending this morning. What a pleasant surprise!

Can't wait to carry my brand new Glock :mrgreen:

How much longer should I expect until I have my plastic? A week?

My background check took all of 18 seconds when I got a certified copy at the courthouse. Hopefully that speeds up my processing time...

After it says mailed I bet you will get it 3-4 days after update. If it went to manu on the 31, then it should be updated to mailed today! :mrgreen:

Do they mail on Saturdays? And don't they only update statuses in the morning?

I've heard that they update all the time, but I've only ever noticed it in the mornings. As for mailing you got me on that one. I know that it updates sometimes a day it two after that action occurs so if they mailed it Friday it might not show up until today it tomorrow.

I wonder if I can ask them to mail it to my dorm instead of my home address?
